WEBVTT

00:12.383 --> 00:16.727
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, almost had it, and welcome to very amusing.

00:17.088 --> 00:21.132
[SPEAKER_03]: Your one stop shop for the story secrets and shenanigans of a popular field theme park journalist.

00:21.592 --> 00:24.115
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm Curly Waisel, and I am back.

00:24.175 --> 00:28.038
[SPEAKER_03]: I apologize that this episode was about at this point a week delayed.

00:28.098 --> 00:37.868
[SPEAKER_03]: I lost my voice real big guys, like real big, like not like it went away for a day or two, like I fully went to holiday events, and whispered and no noise came out of my mouth.

00:37.848 --> 00:41.473
[SPEAKER_03]: I had to go to the ENT to be like, is this verbina like what's happening?

00:41.813 --> 00:49.023
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, I've been in trouble vocally for, oh my god, is it two weeks now?

00:49.744 --> 00:50.865
[SPEAKER_03]: That's bad guys.

00:51.346 --> 00:52.007
[SPEAKER_03]: That's really bad.

00:52.507 --> 00:53.949
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I'm finally getting better.

00:53.989 --> 00:57.694
[SPEAKER_03]: It's still like I'm in a lower register so I can't quite hit the same notes.

00:57.714 --> 00:58.295
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like talking.

00:58.335 --> 01:00.598
[SPEAKER_03]: I sound like a different person and I feel like this sound

01:00.578 --> 01:19.330
[SPEAKER_03]: more authoritative because you know when people send a lot of exclamation points in their emails people clown on them that's essentially my style of speaking out loud and I don't have that upper register like the gig leaves sounds anymore I'm just down here and I'm working with it I feel like I got a blunt haircut you know like I got like a sharp bob but just with my voice.

01:19.310 --> 01:21.112
[SPEAKER_03]: However, there's no permanent damage.

01:21.292 --> 01:26.079
[SPEAKER_03]: It did look great when the doctor looked at it, but she's like, it's coming back in just the patient.

01:26.139 --> 01:31.305
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're a subscriber at Instagram, you already know this, but the doctor told me to drink water, which already is a problem for me.

01:31.926 --> 01:35.871
[SPEAKER_03]: Avoid caffeine, which I'm quite literally drinking out of a bucket.

01:36.331 --> 01:37.313
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, coffee right now.

01:37.653 --> 01:38.314
[SPEAKER_03]: Literally, it's a bucket.

01:38.334 --> 01:39.175
[SPEAKER_03]: It has a handle.

01:39.155 --> 01:46.005
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a whole thing, and she also said to go on vocal rest, which is impossible for more.

01:46.025 --> 01:56.059
[SPEAKER_03]: I have been out every night, and like not partying, I have been actually completely not staying out late and not drinking because I knew to get through this month to have my voice back.

01:56.099 --> 01:57.681
[SPEAKER_03]: I would need everything in my power.

01:57.701 --> 02:00.505
[SPEAKER_03]: I've just been socializing, it's like the talking has been rough.

02:00.485 --> 02:09.396
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm here and I am going to record this podcast over a few different days to make sure that hopefully my voice stays intact enough, where it sounds okay.

02:09.416 --> 02:14.082
[SPEAKER_03]: I know I don't feel like sound like myself, and I know that is jarring in an audio format, so for that I apologize.

02:14.423 --> 02:25.497
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm here and know that if the enthusiasm is not coming through my hemorrhage vocal cords, not good to have someone stick a scope through your nose and down your throat, like when you learned about mummification in third grade.

02:25.477 --> 02:27.841
[SPEAKER_03]: And have them be like, oh yeah, I see him raging.

02:28.062 --> 02:39.563
[SPEAKER_03]: That's not a word you want to hear when you're job is like kind of your vocal cords now I don't write as much as I speak out loud So oops, yes, I should take care of my instrument and I don't I also haven't been drinking any Water and just coffee.

02:39.703 --> 02:40.284
[SPEAKER_03]: It's fine.

02:40.404 --> 02:43.690
[SPEAKER_03]: December is one long party, and I just want to be socializing all the time.

02:44.111 --> 02:45.173
[SPEAKER_03]: Speaking of

02:45.490 --> 02:49.657
[SPEAKER_03]: Warner, why do I always stumble when I say it on the podcast and not in real life?

02:49.997 --> 02:54.785
[SPEAKER_03]: The Warner Brothers studio to Hollywood, Gilmore Girls Activation is alive.

02:54.825 --> 02:55.506
[SPEAKER_03]: It is happening.

02:55.526 --> 02:58.291
[SPEAKER_03]: I have gone twice already by the time recording this by the time you listen to this.

02:58.471 --> 03:01.356
[SPEAKER_03]: I both have gone three times, three times!

03:01.336 --> 03:04.162
[SPEAKER_03]: I have a problem and I said I'd love to have fun, okay?

03:04.182 --> 03:17.067
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd love to see an environment and I can't help myself But we got some calls after that episode from people who are planning on going and had some questions I have been holding those specifically from whatever this episode was and now that we know it is eight Charles hotline

03:17.047 --> 03:18.870
[SPEAKER_03]: episode, I will be playing those during the show.

03:18.970 --> 03:26.901
[SPEAKER_03]: I won't get your questions answered, but once again, I love nothing more than getting my car driving 18 to 22 minutes and being in Star's Hollow.

03:27.041 --> 03:27.722
[SPEAKER_03]: It blows my mind.

03:27.862 --> 03:29.645
[SPEAKER_03]: Los Angeles is the most amazing sitting in the world.

03:29.965 --> 03:31.928
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe that like real art is made here.

03:31.988 --> 03:33.290
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, I will go off on the tangent.

03:33.610 --> 03:37.536
[SPEAKER_03]: Los Angeles is an artist's city, and I swear by that.

03:38.377 --> 03:41.081
[SPEAKER_03]: This week we have so many chose calls that I've meaning to get to.

03:41.121 --> 03:42.422
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so excited to share them with you.

03:42.843 --> 03:43.484
[SPEAKER_03]: So stick around.

03:43.544 --> 03:45.687
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope that this makes your

03:45.667 --> 03:57.357
[SPEAKER_03]: time waiting in TSA, drive to a relative's house, long train journey, last-minute errands to go get a bunch of vegetables that you forgot for some holiday meal.

03:58.378 --> 04:04.203
[SPEAKER_03]: I think you listened to while you are spending way too long getting ready for New Year's Eve, which is something I didn't really do.

04:04.544 --> 04:13.952
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope wherever you are this holiday season, this episode brings you joy and warmth and not the height you're piercing, octaves I'm used to but still as much as enthusiasm as I can

04:14.607 --> 04:16.270
[SPEAKER_03]: Stick around, we have such a great show for you.

04:16.290 --> 04:17.712
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait to talk to you even more.

04:18.133 --> 04:18.774
[SPEAKER_03]: Happy holidays!

04:19.034 --> 04:36.463
[SPEAKER_03]: Happy everything!

04:39.582 --> 04:45.109
[SPEAKER_06]: I currently, I am in quite the predicament and I cannot think of a better person to help me out with this one.

04:45.770 --> 04:59.767
[SPEAKER_06]: So I'm going to a conference in the Orlando area and when I inquired about seeing if I could fly on early or stay late, I found out I actually have to travel with my team here, which means I can't go down early to get a true park day in.

04:59.827 --> 05:08.037
[SPEAKER_06]: This means that what I'm left with is kind of hoping that I get in early enough where I could run somewhere in the morning and maybe even get a park day in.

05:08.287 --> 05:20.022
[SPEAKER_06]: or what's probably going to actually happen in that I have some time late night after the Congress closed after any dinners to try to just get some semblance of Disney or universal magic can.

05:20.563 --> 05:24.107
[SPEAKER_06]: I already checked and there's no extra magic hours of the Disney parks for my day.

05:24.628 --> 05:27.091
[SPEAKER_06]: So I'm just wondering what you would do in the situation.

05:27.251 --> 05:35.762
[SPEAKER_06]: What would be your best quick hit of some theme park magic if you say only have from 19 some good night to get something in.

05:36.046 --> 05:39.874
[SPEAKER_06]: This is January, so could be a slower season where things aren't open as late.

05:40.155 --> 05:42.079
[SPEAKER_06]: I know I could struggle to get into Trader Sam's.

05:42.139 --> 05:46.228
[SPEAKER_06]: We no longer have the beloved late Jelly Rolls shot out the podcast the ride.

05:46.689 --> 05:48.574
[SPEAKER_06]: So I just need something.

05:48.594 --> 05:51.119
[SPEAKER_06]: Is that'll make me be able to check that box.

05:51.159 --> 05:55.168
[SPEAKER_06]: And not just be itchy the whole time knowing the parks are near and I am not there.

05:55.368 --> 05:58.633
[SPEAKER_06]: Thank you so much for all the joy you bring us with your podcast.

05:58.653 --> 05:59.394
[SPEAKER_06]: I appreciate it.

05:59.995 --> 06:08.006
[SPEAKER_03]: You are going to predicament no more because yeah, this is an issue and I am the right person to help you here.

06:08.127 --> 06:09.308
[SPEAKER_03]: Now this is truly exciting.

06:09.328 --> 06:19.163
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the type of thing that I like wake up every day hoping to think about because if you are that close and I don't know if this is playing before or after a Disney Cruise Land call in this episode yet.

06:19.183 --> 06:20.785
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not sure of the placement.

06:20.765 --> 06:25.229
[SPEAKER_03]: I, I have a problem where if I am in, if I'm in Orlando, if I'm near I have to go to a theme park.

06:25.269 --> 06:28.953
[SPEAKER_03]: That's why sailing on a pork and arrow can be tricky for me, but I get it.

06:29.453 --> 06:34.498
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're there, you gotta see something, you gotta scratch that inch and I am here to solve this problem for you.

06:34.598 --> 06:34.798
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay?

06:35.158 --> 06:36.439
[SPEAKER_03]: We're gonna give you something.

06:36.499 --> 06:39.362
[SPEAKER_03]: We're gonna give you different options to make sure you're covered.

06:39.662 --> 06:43.906
[SPEAKER_03]: Because worst case scenario, we're just gonna be on property and fart around.

06:43.986 --> 06:50.232
[SPEAKER_03]: We have to at least like smell the rarefied air of a Walt Disney World resort hotel.

06:50.650 --> 06:52.733
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, you mentioned your trip is in January.

06:52.873 --> 06:59.100
[SPEAKER_03]: You mentioned 9 p.m. being your start time, which I know is a little flexible but you're kind of like assuming after a work dinner then you'd go out.

06:59.120 --> 07:09.373
[SPEAKER_03]: 9 p.m. being your start time is a little troublesome because the parks not be run in that late in January.

07:09.453 --> 07:12.877
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I remember back in the day when they would be open forever.

07:12.957 --> 07:17.522
[SPEAKER_03]: But they are closing earlier than you would think and it stinks dude, it stinks.

07:17.643 --> 07:18.784
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm stealing

07:18.764 --> 07:42.706
[SPEAKER_03]: like 9pm is the latest closure across the board for weeks and 9am is the earliest well 8am in Animal Kingdom but 9am for the other parks for opening which is bananas like the earliest opening in Animal Kingdom is 8am so before depending on when your work starts you can squeeze in like an ounce of magic if you rope drop but I don't feel good banking on that so we're going to focus on nighttime.

07:43.126 --> 07:48.771
[SPEAKER_03]: Now if we are going to squeeze our way into a park and I'm playing

07:48.751 --> 07:49.897
[SPEAKER_03]: Play it by ear.

07:49.977 --> 07:57.175
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want you to be sitting on the ticket, but I also don't want you to spend $100 and some dollars just to be in a park at 8.58 p.m.

07:57.458 --> 08:18.977
[SPEAKER_03]: Now the trick to getting squeezing a lot of juice out of a very very short park visit is to make sure that you're not wasting any time doing anything you don't absolutely want to do you probably want to have a little snacky which is not an issue you can always get something Disney on the way out like there's always a way to find a food but I mean when the park closes the food options are smaller but there's still there's still stuff we can do.

08:18.957 --> 08:20.620
[SPEAKER_03]: But you want to go on a ride.

08:20.881 --> 08:21.882
[SPEAKER_03]: We got to be going on a ride.

08:21.983 --> 08:29.897
[SPEAKER_03]: And so you want to go on the easiest, oldest ride that gives you enough glee, maybe not the most glee, maybe we're not going on a brand new roller coaster.

08:29.977 --> 08:36.730
[SPEAKER_03]: But we still are going on something that brings you joy without wasting time in line or wasting time on the ride.

08:36.710 --> 08:44.279
[SPEAKER_03]: We're thinking grand fiesta tour at Epcot, something like tomorrow land transit authority, people move over or the little mermaid and magic kingdom.

08:44.720 --> 08:55.193
[SPEAKER_03]: Probably Star Wars, it Disney's Hollywood Studios, or why it's pretty easy to get on late at night that won't waste too much time to get you in and out and you're able to do a little more before you have to leave.

08:55.633 --> 09:01.080
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, if food is your priority, a lot of things can close right when the park closes, so make sure you factor that in.

09:01.481 --> 09:04.945
[SPEAKER_03]: But there's nothing like the adrenaline or run into get a snack real

09:04.925 --> 09:09.610
[SPEAKER_03]: pop in in that line right for the park closes because that, that is something special.

09:10.291 --> 09:13.474
[SPEAKER_03]: So if you don't want to play it too close, I don't want you to like mess up your job.

09:13.515 --> 09:24.847
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm worried about a 9 a.m. park opening, you getting in and doing stuff and getting out in time and like getting back, because I don't know where in Orlando, all of this work stuff is happening, but I do want to mention one other thing for late night because that's the plan I'm going with.

09:25.408 --> 09:29.312
[SPEAKER_03]: I know you said there were no extra magic hours like those hotel hours, but

09:29.292 --> 09:34.321
[SPEAKER_03]: Since it is January, that's a month when they do those Disney after-hour events.

09:34.662 --> 09:52.093
[SPEAKER_03]: And those events are 10 a.m., sorry, 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. And if one of those is on any night of your trip, and you can buy a ticket to that, it would be like the feeling of a hundred correct Tetris pieces falling into position.

09:52.428 --> 10:00.158
[SPEAKER_03]: Just double check to see if any of that popped up because if there is one of those ticket events while you're there caffeine can keep you awake if you're out late.

10:00.238 --> 10:04.083
[SPEAKER_03]: It's fine, but a 10 pm to a 1 am nobody even has to know you went.

10:04.403 --> 10:12.794
[SPEAKER_03]: Nobody even has to know and similarly, I'm not sure what your checkout situation is because you're traveling with your team, but what do you do in the morning that you travel?

10:12.894 --> 10:18.161
[SPEAKER_03]: Because if you're flying it like, I don't like new like if you're meeting your team at 10, you might be able to squeeze in the morning.

10:18.602 --> 10:21.085
[SPEAKER_03]: If I have a squeeze, I'll make you off a little talent.

10:21.065 --> 10:21.826
[SPEAKER_03]: Just say it.

10:22.367 --> 10:27.255
[SPEAKER_03]: So if you can't make it to the park, I want to let you know I do have a contingency plan for you.

10:27.616 --> 10:31.683
[SPEAKER_03]: So if everything goes straight to heck, we have two late night options.

10:32.123 --> 10:34.467
[SPEAKER_03]: The first one, we go to Disney Springs.

10:34.487 --> 10:46.347
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, not ideal, not the full theme park vibe, but there is enough like rainforest cafe, volcano, big design moments and cookies for sale that'll

10:46.327 --> 10:51.233
[SPEAKER_03]: And number two, I'm going to send you the old faithful, the monorail of resorts.

10:51.754 --> 11:01.325
[SPEAKER_03]: Even if you roll up, so late that the bars are closed and trade or sams is impossible to get into, the dining locations are typically open until midnight.

11:01.685 --> 11:06.451
[SPEAKER_03]: Something like Gasper-Ella Island Grill at the Grand Floridian is open that late.

11:06.511 --> 11:08.994
[SPEAKER_03]: It's, I've never not seen it open until midnight.

11:09.355 --> 11:11.617
[SPEAKER_03]: And if you get their so late, you can't do what you want.

11:11.798 --> 11:16.283
[SPEAKER_03]: You can always go to the Grand Floridian, take in the lobby, which is like so quaint at

11:16.263 --> 11:22.735
[SPEAKER_03]: walk around get a Mickey bar and then take them on a rail from resort to resort and soak up the vibes.

11:23.176 --> 11:26.642
[SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't seem like it would be enough, but I'm telling you it's enough.

11:26.762 --> 11:32.893
[SPEAKER_03]: Getting like a bite in a ride is what a quick trip needs and that's a bite in a ride even though you're not inside the park.

11:32.914 --> 11:37.562
[SPEAKER_03]: You can see the castle like you're not going to feel like oh I'm almost there and you feel like you really aren't there.

11:37.542 --> 11:46.312
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I will flag if you want to go the Trader Sam's route to me, Trader Sam's is so indoors that I don't get my like Disney fix from it, but I know other people do, so I don't want to be rude.

11:46.652 --> 11:51.237
[SPEAKER_03]: But Captain Cooks, which is the quick service at Disney's Poly, that is also open to my neighbors, not the same.

11:51.377 --> 11:56.122
[SPEAKER_03]: That place does not have the same vibe as Gasperline, grilled to me, I love Gasperline, and I always will.

11:56.603 --> 11:59.466
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, if you can't get into Trader Sam's and that's something you really wanted to do.

11:59.766 --> 12:07.515
[SPEAKER_03]: Remember, Tambo Lounge, just upstairs, is also open until 10 and you get a few with the lobby, you can get a fun drink and it really will feel like you are at the Poly.

12:08.035 --> 12:10.519
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't forget they also sell Dolwip at the Poly.

12:10.799 --> 12:12.542
[SPEAKER_03]: Downstairs, I think it's called Pineapple Lennay.

12:12.562 --> 12:15.146
[SPEAKER_03]: I think they're also open to the round 10.

12:15.646 --> 12:20.353
[SPEAKER_03]: So you can maybe get a little Dolwip a little fix and get your Disney magic.

12:20.934 --> 12:24.960
[SPEAKER_03]: If you are ending in 1030, and you're like, I just need to see it.

12:25.101 --> 12:26.122
[SPEAKER_03]: Go to the Monoreal Resorts.

12:26.443 --> 12:27.524
[SPEAKER_03]: The Monoreal will be running.

12:27.584 --> 12:31.410
[SPEAKER_03]: If you go around that time, you will get a little bit of Disney.

12:31.390 --> 12:32.311
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope that was helpful.

12:32.892 --> 12:36.777
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I don't want to recommend too much that would get you in trouble with your job.

12:37.257 --> 12:39.500
[SPEAKER_03]: But if you're there, you got to see Disney.

12:39.620 --> 12:43.926
[SPEAKER_03]: And sometimes that just means taking an expensive Uber back and forth to a hotel.

12:44.086 --> 12:45.688
[SPEAKER_03]: I did that on a recent trip.

12:46.069 --> 12:50.754
[SPEAKER_03]: I spent a lot of money, a lot of money on an Uber back and forth just to walk around Disney's boardwalk.

12:51.075 --> 12:51.956
[SPEAKER_03]: I went to kickback shop.

12:51.976 --> 12:53.618
[SPEAKER_03]: This was like months ago, you guys know this.

12:53.598 --> 12:54.539
[SPEAKER_03]: And it was like enough.

12:54.700 --> 12:56.603
[SPEAKER_03]: I like had I just like my feet need to touch the ground.

12:56.683 --> 12:59.467
[SPEAKER_03]: My feet need to touch the ground and then I'll be back And it was all I need it.

12:59.527 --> 13:00.148
[SPEAKER_03]: It was fantastic.

13:00.389 --> 13:01.430
[SPEAKER_03]: So I hope you do the same.

13:01.470 --> 13:10.324
[SPEAKER_03]: Please call back and let me know how it goes I'm so excited for you and like yeah again just a little bit of magic just a little bit of magic is all you need and you know what?

13:10.405 --> 13:11.187
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

13:11.207 --> 13:11.748
[SPEAKER_03]: Another idea.

13:12.229 --> 13:16.760
[SPEAKER_03]: If morning is the best, if you're like, I have to be at work at 10, but I'm waking up at 6 a.m.

13:16.780 --> 13:17.621
[SPEAKER_03]: I can make anything happen.

13:18.022 --> 13:20.368
[SPEAKER_03]: Why don't you do a Disney's animal kingdom launch?

13:20.709 --> 13:27.925
[SPEAKER_03]: Go get like a coffee and like a Disney craft, like a Disney parts cup, get a coffee at that hotel, and then go see the animals at the hotel.

13:27.905 --> 13:30.449
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that is your morning contingency plan.

13:30.469 --> 13:34.776
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you could go to the Monterele hotels, but I feel like, okay, I'm going off in the tangent.

13:35.077 --> 13:37.862
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like if you're going in the morning and getting a fix, the hotel doesn't do it.

13:38.322 --> 13:39.805
[SPEAKER_03]: The hotel really?

13:39.945 --> 13:41.167
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, I'm going way too deep on this.

13:41.488 --> 13:44.994
[SPEAKER_03]: The magic and a lure of being like, wow, I'm a Disney amount of hotel.

13:45.014 --> 13:48.259
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it, I think it raises at night time.

13:48.239 --> 13:54.345
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think early in the morning is the worst time to visit the hotel because you're going to be surrounded by people rushing to get to the park and that would make me jealous.

13:54.706 --> 13:57.989
[SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't feel that way at Animal Kingdom because I'd be like, we have animals here too.

13:58.390 --> 13:59.471
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's a little more magical.

14:00.051 --> 14:03.395
[SPEAKER_03]: It's also like a little tricky to get to those moderate hotels via Uber, I believe, in the morning.

14:03.775 --> 14:07.820
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, Animal Kingdom launch, get a coffee, pick up something, bring on the plane to be like, I made it.

14:07.920 --> 14:10.903
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, like, make you ship those Mickey ship goldfish crackers, stuff like that.

14:10.943 --> 14:12.725
[SPEAKER_03]: And then you see an animal and you be like, wow, this is majestic.

14:12.785 --> 14:13.165
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it here.

14:13.626 --> 14:14.447
[SPEAKER_03]: That is my plan for you.

14:14.487 --> 14:17.790
[SPEAKER_03]: Let me know how it goes.

14:17.770 --> 14:18.891
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you for calling.

14:19.051 --> 14:21.154
[SPEAKER_03]: This is Lisa, the type of calls I live for.

14:23.056 --> 14:23.597
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, Charlie.

14:23.677 --> 14:25.078
[SPEAKER_01]: Long time listener for some color.

14:25.278 --> 14:27.861
[SPEAKER_01]: So insert, terrifying, but you keep encouraging us to call.

14:27.981 --> 14:30.424
[SPEAKER_01]: So I finally got my hat together enough to do that.

14:31.485 --> 14:38.293
[SPEAKER_01]: Currently at DCA enjoying the perspective and a fun burn on my first like solo Disney time ever, which is been pretty cool.

14:38.794 --> 14:47.203
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, I guess after a lot of listening, a few things is built up that I

14:47.403 --> 14:49.145
[SPEAKER_01]: ADHD related stuff.

14:49.165 --> 15:01.483
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess I'll say I'm a 35 year old professional and I was just diagnosed with it a few months ago and medication has been a really interesting change and executive function coaching has been really cool.

15:01.823 --> 15:17.325
[SPEAKER_01]: It's interesting to have someone to talk to just to help strategize how to deal with like cheesy stuff like how do I go to bed on time and how do I get myself to sit in one place and work on something and like

15:17.508 --> 15:22.172
[SPEAKER_01]: If you haven't looked into it, I would say it's been really helpful for me and it's totally worth totally worth doing.

15:22.212 --> 15:24.394
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, okay, two other things.

15:25.355 --> 15:29.119
[SPEAKER_01]: We, the people demands a review of the David Crochet News.

15:29.419 --> 15:32.722
[SPEAKER_01]: You said you'd never do it, but you got to get those arm workouts in.

15:33.042 --> 15:34.844
[SPEAKER_01]: And there is no better way than doing that.

15:34.964 --> 15:38.928
[SPEAKER_01]: Plus there's a whole whole bunch of theme park humor that you've never heard because you've never been on it.

15:39.108 --> 15:43.332
[SPEAKER_01]: So just think there's, there's another, another quanta of information that you're missing out on.

15:43.872 --> 15:44.933
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, okay.

15:45.284 --> 15:53.195
[SPEAKER_01]: In preparation for the trip, I was going through your latest Disneyland episode and realize what I really want is your guide to your favorite popcorn hookups.

15:53.275 --> 16:02.468
[SPEAKER_01]: I know you said anything that looks fresh and that's what I'm trying to follow but you've mentioned like your favorite cards in the past and I would love all the details on that.

16:02.728 --> 16:05.492
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, I love listening to the podcast.

16:05.512 --> 16:07.655
[SPEAKER_01]: Really got the Paris Social Relationship.

16:07.995 --> 16:13.603
[SPEAKER_01]: Every time I travel, I'm listening, yeah, anyway, if incredible, hope you're having a great weekend.

16:14.039 --> 16:14.419
[SPEAKER_01]: See you later.

16:14.980 --> 16:17.764
[SPEAKER_01]: I see you real soon.

16:17.784 --> 16:17.904
[SPEAKER_01]: Bye.

16:19.125 --> 16:19.365
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi.

16:19.446 --> 16:21.468
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, there are so many fun tiny questions in here.

16:21.628 --> 16:27.215
[SPEAKER_03]: And I jotted them down to hopefully not miss any, but if I miss any, you also have ADHDs to get it.

16:27.335 --> 16:28.717
[SPEAKER_03]: And I will do my best.

16:29.017 --> 16:35.225
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, I know to everyone listening to this, I know picking up a phone is terrifying.

16:35.485 --> 16:38.008
[SPEAKER_03]: I have to call a doctor about something this week.

16:38.028 --> 16:39.310
[SPEAKER_03]: This, I'm recording this on a Saturday.

16:39.390 --> 16:40.191
[SPEAKER_03]: I have to call in Monday.

16:40.331 --> 16:42.173
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm already dreading it.

16:42.153 --> 16:50.602
[SPEAKER_03]: It's two days away, and I'm already like, I have to pick up the phone once, and I even love this doctor, and I love the people in the front desk, and I'm already dreading it.

16:50.662 --> 16:56.328
[SPEAKER_03]: So I am with you, calling the terms hotline is not easy, but I know that.

16:56.629 --> 16:58.991
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that, and I promise it is worth it.

16:59.051 --> 17:01.154
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a safe space.

17:01.634 --> 17:05.038
[SPEAKER_03]: If you need to call multiple times, you need to call six times to get the words out.

17:05.018 --> 17:05.759
[SPEAKER_03]: That's fine.

17:05.939 --> 17:08.943
[SPEAKER_03]: I only listen to the most recent one because I get it.

17:09.404 --> 17:14.410
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, if it's easier for you to like jot down some notes before you call that is totally fine, too.

17:14.891 --> 17:20.858
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe he also seems to like leave messages like when I guess there was no, there was no social media.

17:20.878 --> 17:25.204
[SPEAKER_03]: So there was no like ADHD social media back when people had landline.

17:25.264 --> 17:30.250
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm curious what it was like for people with ADHD a while ago, and they had to just call around for stuff.

17:30.230 --> 17:31.351
[SPEAKER_03]: that must have been hard.

17:31.431 --> 17:33.133
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't give them enough empathy.

17:33.153 --> 17:34.635
[SPEAKER_03]: That would have been bad.

17:35.135 --> 17:37.578
[SPEAKER_03]: But I want the church hotline to be a safe space.

17:37.598 --> 17:51.634
[SPEAKER_03]: So why don't we all use the church hotline like a gym, like a mental health club for, I guess like exercising our phone functionality, because Lord knows I need to do that too, and we many of us could get more used to using phones.

17:51.734 --> 17:52.274
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like it.

17:52.535 --> 17:53.416
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like it.

17:53.436 --> 17:57.520
[SPEAKER_03]: It stresses me out, but we are so used to using our phones

17:57.500 --> 18:00.902
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean today I did some an email increase that I've calling a company I really need to call.

18:01.043 --> 18:01.909
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, I'm learning.

18:02.211 --> 18:02.634
[SPEAKER_03]: I get it.

18:02.775 --> 18:03.882
[SPEAKER_03]: I get this struggle.

18:04.165 --> 18:07.128
[SPEAKER_03]: but we should all help each other through because I need to help also.

18:07.509 --> 18:09.851
[SPEAKER_03]: I was watching bones because I'm in a bones phase again.

18:09.871 --> 18:18.201
[SPEAKER_03]: I was watching bones a few days ago and one of the characters picked up a phone to order typhoon over the phone and there is an allure to getting things done over the phone.

18:18.541 --> 18:22.686
[SPEAKER_03]: I kind of missed that, like what if we just rebrand it as chic instead of scary?

18:23.166 --> 18:28.412
[SPEAKER_03]: Like I don't need to always order through a good door dash, like picking up a phone, ooh glamorous.

18:28.512 --> 18:31.195
[SPEAKER_03]: I think we can reframe the idea of doing it.

18:31.476 --> 18:32.637
[SPEAKER_03]: That's just how I feel.

18:32.617 --> 18:40.504
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, executive function, the executive function coaching sounds very cool and also like it's something I need.

18:40.624 --> 18:45.389
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to look into this because I have never used it and I definitely could.

18:45.909 --> 18:53.497
[SPEAKER_03]: Isn't it wild how so many of us like have this little trait like this little thing in our bodies that makes it impossible for us to do extremely basic stuff?

18:53.837 --> 18:56.820
[SPEAKER_03]: But huge big picture stuff we can like totally nail and it's fine.

18:56.840 --> 18:57.540
[SPEAKER_03]: We don't even think about it.

18:58.001 --> 18:59.362
[SPEAKER_03]: Like a perfect example.

18:59.382 --> 19:00.463
[SPEAKER_03]: Like

19:00.443 --> 19:23.953
[SPEAKER_03]: you're like your brain when you are on the right meds is so different because I am hard at work on a music loser like the to-do list be sandal-esque and I made a huge like breakdown in different tasks on my whiteboard in my office and I realized this week that my handwriting when I'm on my meds versus when I'm not is completely different.

19:23.933 --> 19:28.340
[SPEAKER_03]: So, like, think about what that's like on a regular day-to-day functionality basis.

19:28.640 --> 19:43.102
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, when you have ADHD, or, I mean, many other things, I'm sure this is applicable, there's so many things in life that you have to work so hard to maintain normalcy in, and you just get so used to that, you just get so used to that little silent struggle.

19:43.362 --> 19:49.992
[SPEAKER_03]: So, I'm very glad you got the assistance you need, and basically informed me that this exists, because I need to do that, too, because, uh,

19:49.972 --> 19:54.439
[SPEAKER_03]: I cannot manage time, I am time blind, and I could get better at it.

19:54.460 --> 20:03.535
[SPEAKER_03]: The only thing I'm going to ask is that in your process of learning to focus more, maybe focus a little less on encouraging me to go on those canoes, because I'm not going on the canoes.

20:04.156 --> 20:05.157
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going on the canoes.

20:05.518 --> 20:07.441
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, hold on once I get pearls here.

20:08.603 --> 20:10.406
[SPEAKER_10]: You're speaking to the mic.

20:10.426 --> 20:12.850
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna say hi.

20:12.870 --> 20:12.931
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi.

20:12.951 --> 20:15.034
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna say welcome to very music.

20:16.330 --> 20:19.314
[SPEAKER_03]: You like the mic cover?

20:20.675 --> 20:21.156
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

20:22.137 --> 20:22.918
[SPEAKER_03]: It's squishy, right?

20:24.720 --> 20:25.722
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you want to sing your reindeer song?

20:26.543 --> 20:27.003
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no.

20:27.023 --> 20:28.064
[SPEAKER_03]: No, you don't want to.

20:28.525 --> 20:30.207
[SPEAKER_10]: I'll sing to the listeners your favorite ride.

20:30.628 --> 20:31.669
[SPEAKER_10]: What's your favorite ride?

20:32.670 --> 20:34.012
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm flowers in.

20:34.032 --> 20:34.552
[SPEAKER_03]: Frozen.

20:34.612 --> 20:35.894
[SPEAKER_03]: Instead of it's a small world?

20:38.417 --> 20:39.158
[SPEAKER_03]: What about the major ride?

20:39.979 --> 20:40.960
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

20:40.980 --> 20:42.422
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you want to do that tomorrow?

20:42.841 --> 20:44.664
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to go on that.

20:44.684 --> 20:49.590
[SPEAKER_10]: What's your favorite food in Disneyland?

20:49.611 --> 20:50.652
[SPEAKER_10]: What's your favorite food in Disneyland?

20:50.672 --> 20:51.333
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm a chicken.

20:51.874 --> 20:52.374
[SPEAKER_03]: Chicken!

20:53.015 --> 20:54.157
[SPEAKER_03]: So the fried chicken we get?

20:54.177 --> 20:54.898
[SPEAKER_03]: It Plaza is?

20:56.560 --> 20:57.061
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you like that?

20:58.122 --> 20:59.585
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I like it.

20:59.605 --> 21:00.105
[SPEAKER_03]: And the cake.

21:00.185 --> 21:01.047
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that was a good meal.

21:01.227 --> 21:01.667
[SPEAKER_03]: That cake.

21:01.988 --> 21:03.250
[SPEAKER_03]: I remember that cake you loved that.

21:03.810 --> 21:04.251
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, baby.

21:04.271 --> 21:04.892
[SPEAKER_03]: Can you say bye-bye?

21:05.773 --> 21:06.334
[SPEAKER_03]: Bye-bye.

21:07.765 --> 21:09.407
[SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, I can't think of a better example.

21:09.648 --> 21:10.809
[SPEAKER_03]: What ADHD is like?

21:11.110 --> 21:14.033
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like a thought bursting in the door and being like, I'm here.

21:14.094 --> 21:15.736
[SPEAKER_03]: And then everything stops for it.

21:15.756 --> 21:16.857
[SPEAKER_03]: And you're like, wait, how did I get here?

21:16.877 --> 21:17.819
[SPEAKER_03]: What's going on where was I?

21:18.139 --> 21:20.362
[SPEAKER_03]: That, my friends, is a regular day in my brain.

21:20.742 --> 21:24.808
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, I don't want to forget to comment on the last question you had, which is your favorite popcorn hookups.

21:24.908 --> 21:37.485
[SPEAKER_03]: I actually listened to your call before I went to Disneyland a few days ago and was thinking about this while I was there because I have gotten popcorn twice at the front hub at Disneyland, which the front hub popcorn stand

21:37.465 --> 21:42.990
[SPEAKER_03]: I've gotten it twice, thoroughly, and it wasn't that good, so I'm kind of sworn off of that one.

21:43.030 --> 21:49.236
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I am like, now I'm determined to get you a fully accurate answer, but I think I'm leaning more towards the one by small world.

21:49.557 --> 21:53.901
[SPEAKER_03]: It's never failed me, and it's usually pretty good as long as it's not empty.

21:53.921 --> 22:02.409
[SPEAKER_03]: If it's empty, I stay away, but like that one or the one, there's one kind of between the castle and small world, that one I think is also good.

22:02.890 --> 22:05.312
[SPEAKER_03]: At DCA,

22:05.292 --> 22:10.922
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I've had no, I have like mediocre mediocre popcorn DCA.

22:11.263 --> 22:15.772
[SPEAKER_03]: My gut is telling me to go to the one that's closer over by Sorin.

22:16.292 --> 22:21.362
[SPEAKER_03]: That's probably the next one I will try again, but I usually am already getting it Disneyland by the time I'm with DCA, so I've already gotten it.

22:21.622 --> 22:22.544
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what I'm going to say.

22:22.564 --> 22:23.766
[SPEAKER_03]: Those are the ones I'm going to be standing behind.

22:23.867 --> 22:27.874
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to test those out in upcoming weeks, because you know, I'm going to the park a lot because I love

22:27.854 --> 22:51.263
[SPEAKER_03]: the holiday lights and I wasn't doing it again and again and again um but yeah thank you so much for your call um i'm i'm glad that we are on the same ADHD wavelength and guys don't feel scared about calling it's just me it's fun it's fun hello my mom and i both did share that to California for the first week of January to experience the Gilmore girls

22:51.766 --> 23:08.193
[SPEAKER_05]: universal studios experience because of your review from last year would have never considered doing it but were shoot your more girls fans, huge themed experiences fans, and most importantly huge fans of you and I am so excited to see what it's all about.

23:08.754 --> 23:12.821
[SPEAKER_05]: So what tips do you have for this experience?

23:12.841 --> 23:16.407
[SPEAKER_05]: Specifically anything we have to eat, try, do, miss,

23:17.011 --> 23:17.532
[SPEAKER_05]: can't wait.

23:18.052 --> 23:18.733
[SPEAKER_05]: Thank you so much.

23:20.035 --> 23:31.270
[SPEAKER_03]: I have to thank you because truly the highest honor of podcasting to me is when I get on the mic and I yell enthusiastically about something and you go, oh this woman wants to have yelling about it.

23:31.310 --> 23:34.494
[SPEAKER_03]: I think I should probably go do this and then you actually book the trip to me.

23:34.535 --> 23:40.823
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm standing like a Nobel ceremony and somebody is putting a metal over my head and I'm just smiling at the audience's gleeful.

23:40.883 --> 23:44.588
[SPEAKER_03]: Like this is the highest honor and I thank you for that.

23:44.568 --> 23:53.622
[SPEAKER_03]: So I consider it my duty, my obligation to make sure you are fully prepared for your visit to the Warner Bros. studio to our Hollywood as part of this Gilmore Girls Activation.

23:54.022 --> 23:56.806
[SPEAKER_03]: If you don't know what I'm talking about, we did a full episode on this a few weeks ago.

23:57.047 --> 23:57.728
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't shut up.

23:57.748 --> 23:58.329
[SPEAKER_03]: I just have about it.

23:58.549 --> 24:03.096
[SPEAKER_03]: My whole feed at the time you're hearing this is all Gilmore Girls because it's basically a temporary theme park.

24:03.116 --> 24:04.718
[SPEAKER_03]: They open for two weeks in LA.

24:05.119 --> 24:06.441
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm obsessed with it.

24:06.421 --> 24:12.051
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm really glad I held this call until I actually gone because there is a lot of stuff about this year that I want to make sure you know.

24:12.511 --> 24:14.815
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to do my best to not bore anyone listening.

24:14.916 --> 24:19.904
[SPEAKER_03]: I promise I will go through this quick and efficiently, just consider this like a finals cram study session.

24:19.924 --> 24:24.552
[SPEAKER_03]: And also, I think this is very interesting because what they've done this year is they've really expanded it.

24:24.973 --> 24:28.699
[SPEAKER_03]: But they've gone from adding a little feature to the end of a studio tour too, basically.

24:28.679 --> 24:30.901
[SPEAKER_03]: operating a state fair for two weeks.

24:30.921 --> 24:32.543
[SPEAKER_03]: As you heard in that episode, they bring in plumbing.

24:32.583 --> 24:39.450
[SPEAKER_03]: They bring in set dressing like this is a bit of a circus in a good way and and complicated way, which we'll get into in a moment.

24:39.710 --> 24:42.933
[SPEAKER_03]: But it is truly like a full event of its own now.

24:43.314 --> 24:43.994
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's fascinating.

24:44.055 --> 24:46.197
[SPEAKER_03]: And I want to make sure you know everything you need to know.

24:46.517 --> 24:48.799
[SPEAKER_03]: So it is bigger than in years past they've expanded.

24:49.160 --> 24:51.402
[SPEAKER_03]: They rebuilt Miss Patties, which is crazy.

24:51.502 --> 24:52.223
[SPEAKER_03]: I was in Miss Patties.

24:52.463 --> 24:53.404
[SPEAKER_03]: I went to a

24:53.384 --> 24:59.052
[SPEAKER_03]: fake town hall meeting in the actual miss patties in the actual star's hollow like my brain is melting inside my skull It made no sense.

24:59.072 --> 25:12.050
[SPEAKER_03]: I looked out the window and it was like, oh my god like there was Luke's there was down the street You could almost see the gazebo like you ate your really install it so but then us anyway There's a lot of things happening this year.

25:12.090 --> 25:15.876
[SPEAKER_03]: They've really kind of souped it up, but it is busier than ever before.

25:16.216 --> 25:18.379
[SPEAKER_03]: They have introduced this fast past system

25:18.359 --> 25:21.887
[SPEAKER_03]: But honestly, from what I've heard, I went the first day.

25:21.967 --> 25:28.102
[SPEAKER_03]: I went to the media preview, which doesn't really count, but I went the first day of operation, which was kind of its own tricky bit.

25:28.142 --> 25:35.319
[SPEAKER_03]: The first date, something like this, opening a town, 2000s of people that doesn't exist that never really opens, that is complicated on its own.

25:35.359 --> 25:36.722
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's always kind of these,

25:36.702 --> 25:44.597
[SPEAKER_03]: growing pains the first day, but they also hosted a mega podcast recording with Scott Patterson, who plays Luke Daines on Gilmore Girls.

25:45.017 --> 25:49.906
[SPEAKER_03]: And that meant people didn't want to leave the land because they wanted to stay for the late afternoon podcast recording.

25:49.926 --> 25:51.910
[SPEAKER_03]: And once you leave, you can't really get back in.

25:51.890 --> 25:54.773
[SPEAKER_03]: So there are a lot of stories out there that are like, it was wild.

25:54.834 --> 25:56.095
[SPEAKER_03]: I had to wait over an hour for food.

25:56.135 --> 25:58.378
[SPEAKER_03]: I couldn't get in a store like there was a lot of stories like that.

25:58.438 --> 26:01.061
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm hoping that is very specific to that first day.

26:01.421 --> 26:08.250
[SPEAKER_03]: From what I'm hearing the lines are still extremely long for lower-rise house for taking a photo in front of it, and then also for going inside of Luke's Diner.

26:08.510 --> 26:16.159
[SPEAKER_03]: When I was there first thing first day, it was by the time I got to Luke's, it was a two hour line to get in, which is two long.

26:16.139 --> 26:17.842
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, they have this fast pass situation.

26:17.862 --> 26:19.225
[SPEAKER_03]: You're still going to wait in a line.

26:19.265 --> 26:21.008
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just going to be shorter than the posted line.

26:21.569 --> 26:23.794
[SPEAKER_03]: I was clocking it out on day one at about an hour.

26:23.834 --> 26:26.980
[SPEAKER_03]: By the time you go, things will be ironed out better.

26:27.040 --> 26:28.543
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm pretty sure there'll be a better flow.

26:28.583 --> 26:32.110
[SPEAKER_03]: But do prepare to wait more than any coverage from last year.

26:32.530 --> 26:34.975
[SPEAKER_03]: You should prepare to be waiting in line for some of these things.

26:34.955 --> 26:39.222
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, the thing I'm going to tell you, which I have in the internet, because I don't want one of brother studios.

26:39.242 --> 26:43.750
[SPEAKER_03]: We're Hollywood, you come after me, is that there's a video I posted that is a guide.

26:43.790 --> 26:44.952
[SPEAKER_03]: I posted my Instagram TikTok.

26:44.992 --> 26:46.935
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a, like, my guide to stars hollow.

26:47.275 --> 26:54.347
[SPEAKER_03]: In that video, there are photos, there's little video clips of the signs that they have outside of Luke's and outside of Laurel, I saw.

26:54.327 --> 27:08.209
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, this secret might probably be out by the time you live at the time, you know, the tour ends in January, but the QR code for the fast pass times, or in that video, and I saw someone in the comments, and I knew this could happen, and I was like, okay, confirmed it can happen.

27:08.229 --> 27:15.120
[SPEAKER_03]: You can take that in screenshot it, and you can get access to the link for the fast passes, and you can book them at like the end of your tour.

27:15.100 --> 27:16.662
[SPEAKER_03]: So, I would recommend doing that.

27:16.682 --> 27:19.286
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what I'm gonna plan on doing when I go on the tour in two days again.

27:19.346 --> 27:20.648
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going for a ton of time's total.

27:21.209 --> 27:23.151
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm sticking to head and I don't care.

27:23.492 --> 27:26.456
[SPEAKER_03]: They're making a fake theme park land, theme to a show I love.

27:26.516 --> 27:28.118
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, your girl's gonna be there.

27:28.379 --> 27:35.869
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's my first tip is to make sure you have those two links for the fast passes handy, so that you don't have to walk all the way there to see if it's active or take a screenshot like you have it on your phone.

27:35.889 --> 27:39.194
[SPEAKER_03]: You can do whatever you can get in line for lower lies while you check stuff like that.

27:39.214 --> 27:40.095
[SPEAKER_03]: So prepare for that.

27:40.075 --> 27:43.627
[SPEAKER_03]: because you're going later, I want to make sure that you are mentally prepared.

27:43.667 --> 27:47.901
[SPEAKER_03]: If some of the stuff you saw in line might have sold out by the time you got there.

27:48.443 --> 27:50.409
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm recording this on Saturday.

27:50.429 --> 27:53.038
[SPEAKER_03]: I went opening day Thursday.

27:53.221 --> 28:02.360
[SPEAKER_03]: Yesterday, Friday, I saw a post, I saw a comment or something by Scott Patterson that because he provides all the coffee from the land, his coffee company, he said they already had to bring in more cold brew.

28:03.041 --> 28:05.145
[SPEAKER_03]: It had been open for a day and a half.

28:05.747 --> 28:12.360
[SPEAKER_03]: So, just be prepared that some stuff might not be there, but truly, like take all the merchandise away, take all of the,

28:12.340 --> 28:13.281
[SPEAKER_03]: food away all of it.

28:13.321 --> 28:19.790
[SPEAKER_03]: Like the magic there is to be in Star's Hollow being in the land to me is the truly the most special part.

28:19.970 --> 28:27.561
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel more like alive with Glee walking around Star's Hollow looking at that church and then looking at the gazebo that brings me more joy than being in Luke's.

28:27.601 --> 28:29.063
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll be honest, it really does.

28:29.564 --> 28:33.869
[SPEAKER_03]: So just keep that in mind if at any point you're like stress or frustrated or worried about anything.

28:34.470 --> 28:35.732
[SPEAKER_03]: I would recommend

28:35.712 --> 28:37.035
[SPEAKER_03]: budgeting is much time as possible.

28:37.296 --> 28:41.987
[SPEAKER_03]: I would recommend bringing a hat if you're going during the day, bring a water bottle, but it's not necessary.

28:42.027 --> 28:45.035
[SPEAKER_03]: They did have water coolers with cups out, which I thought was a great touch.

28:45.997 --> 28:49.586
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're going at night, make sure to bring a jacket or some sort of layer because LA can get cold at night.

28:49.646 --> 28:50.889
[SPEAKER_03]: It's also so magical there at night.

28:50.909 --> 28:51.711
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going at the very last night.

28:51.731 --> 28:52.894
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so excited.

28:52.874 --> 29:06.327
[SPEAKER_03]: Bring a snack just in case the food lines are long and you want to use that time to do something else but really pack your patience because this is again a temporary location and they are definitely still managing the larger crowds this year.

29:06.827 --> 29:11.431
[SPEAKER_03]: They sold a lot of tickets this year and then they sold a star's hollow only taken on top of it.

29:11.451 --> 29:14.675
[SPEAKER_03]: So there are a lot of people there and there's no forced exit time.

29:14.695 --> 29:17.457
[SPEAKER_03]: You're basically once you're in and then you can leave it wherever you want.

29:17.477 --> 29:18.939
[SPEAKER_03]: So people do hang out for a while.

29:19.359 --> 29:22.662
[SPEAKER_03]: So just having a little like protein snack on you isn't a bad idea

29:22.642 --> 29:25.605
[SPEAKER_03]: treated like a theme park day and really just tried to soak it in.

29:25.665 --> 29:29.450
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of like when I went on the first day, I was trip mom.

29:29.510 --> 29:34.075
[SPEAKER_03]: I fully fell into Disney mode and I was like, got to get a fast path to Luke's got to sign up for the town hall meeting, got to do this, got to do that.

29:34.596 --> 29:47.350
[SPEAKER_03]: And I kind of like stepped outside of the joy of it for a minute until I went to my friend Rachel and then Julia, guessed to the pod, who was just not for Shrek Sember, met up with us and so we all got to like hang out and do stuff together, which was great.

29:47.330 --> 29:52.683
[SPEAKER_03]: But my friend Rachel and I, like, I was a little like booking everything for everyone, like really had Disney brain come alive during it.

29:53.144 --> 30:01.525
[SPEAKER_03]: And then we got a veggie burger and my friend Rachel and I sat on a bench between the church and the gucibo in freaking stars hollow.

30:01.946 --> 30:04.512
[SPEAKER_03]: And we just split a veggie burger in tater tots and gaped.

30:04.492 --> 30:07.139
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, this is what this is all about.

30:07.600 --> 30:09.124
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of merchandising happening.

30:09.144 --> 30:11.370
[SPEAKER_03]: And there's a lot of upsells that drag and fly in this year.

30:11.390 --> 30:14.418
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of, like, this is also the tea looks amazing.

30:14.438 --> 30:15.942
[SPEAKER_03]: You like, sit and get teed, you can sit outside.

30:16.323 --> 30:18.649
[SPEAKER_03]: And like, there's a little like, like, the pastries looked good.

30:18.669 --> 30:20.053
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a pasta that looks, yeah.

30:20.033 --> 30:20.634
[SPEAKER_03]: not sure about it.

30:20.895 --> 30:22.599
[SPEAKER_03]: But like it looks even the T looks cute.

30:22.619 --> 30:23.902
[SPEAKER_03]: Like there's a lot of few things you can do.

30:23.922 --> 30:25.465
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of more upsells this year.

30:25.485 --> 30:28.672
[SPEAKER_03]: There used to be I think it's great that they're investing more in it.

30:28.712 --> 30:33.322
[SPEAKER_03]: Like that's my take on it that even if I don't want to spend an extra feed, like have a sit down dinner.

30:33.383 --> 30:39.055
[SPEAKER_03]: At the end of the day, this is included with the best studio tour in Hollywood.

30:39.035 --> 30:50.627
[SPEAKER_03]: And so the fact that like all of this, it's not, it's not like, oh, I paid $80 to get into Sars Hollow if you're going in the studio tour, it's like almost the same price typically any other time of the year and then you just get all of this with it.

30:50.908 --> 30:57.235
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't want to be like, oh, you have to pay to get in the door and then they're charging this, like, that's why I feel about dessert parties at Disneyland, honestly, that's how I feel by Disneyland.

30:57.615 --> 31:00.478
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, dessert parties in Florida, I feel differently about because I'm like, you're in the big show.

31:00.518 --> 31:01.219
[SPEAKER_03]: The big fireworks.

31:01.259 --> 31:01.759
[SPEAKER_03]: Perfect.

31:02.040 --> 31:05.143
[SPEAKER_03]: So anyway, tangent, that's how I feel.

31:05.123 --> 31:16.620
[SPEAKER_03]: Here, it's really interesting because like you got or just like I just want to make sure your brains in the right mindset like this is a treat that we get to go to this and they're investing a lot of money in it, which is great for us because it means it's going to be around for a while.

31:17.281 --> 31:22.549
[SPEAKER_03]: So if it's crowded if you get a little like you know like oh my god these lines are so long it's not what I anticipated.

31:22.629 --> 31:23.290
[SPEAKER_03]: Just take a breath.

31:23.610 --> 31:26.775
[SPEAKER_03]: Just remember that like you're sending in the legitimate stars.

31:26.835 --> 31:34.506
[SPEAKER_03]: How low like this is stars hollow and just try to like take in the music,

31:34.486 --> 31:35.047
[SPEAKER_03]: time.

31:35.087 --> 31:40.613
[SPEAKER_03]: The only tips I have are like really to, yeah, just everything I've already told you to be prepared.

31:41.354 --> 31:43.837
[SPEAKER_03]: And enjoy have, have so much fun.

31:43.897 --> 31:45.079
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going four times.

31:45.339 --> 31:45.779
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.

31:46.280 --> 31:50.105
[SPEAKER_03]: So much, just treat it like a theme park day and you're gonna have a class.

31:50.185 --> 31:50.986
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope you have so much fun.

31:51.887 --> 31:53.649
[SPEAKER_03]: And maybe I'll see you there, birthdays are the same.

31:54.209 --> 31:55.411
[SPEAKER_03]: And thank you for listening to me, truly.

31:55.531 --> 32:03.160
[SPEAKER_04]: I appreciate it so much.

32:03.443 --> 32:04.784
[SPEAKER_04]: stand up for Cruella.

32:05.345 --> 32:09.269
[SPEAKER_04]: She never actually tells any puppy.

32:09.289 --> 32:10.450
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay?

32:10.670 --> 32:23.182
[SPEAKER_04]: Maybe, maybe, to me, to rewatch some of these, she may have thought about it, tried to intended to, but she never actually tells any puppies.

32:23.282 --> 32:33.012
[SPEAKER_04]: No puppies were harmed in the making of any of her coach

32:33.447 --> 32:43.086
[SPEAKER_04]: Justice or Curewella, very, very misunderstood, Disney doing, that is all, thank you for listening, have a good one.

32:43.522 --> 33:06.222
[SPEAKER_03]: Tammy Tammy Tammy Tammy Tammy Tammy Tammy Tammy Tammy now here's the thing I could have sworn that I responded to this call I felt it in my bones But then I went back through all of the episodes since he made this call in November and I can't find it anywhere Which means that I actually had a full narrative in my head response to you that I just never said out loud

33:06.202 --> 33:13.069
[SPEAKER_03]: So I've been ruminating on this a third a minute, and Tammy, we're talking revisionist history here.

33:13.269 --> 33:15.772
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, Kruella is not a hero.

33:15.832 --> 33:17.954
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, did I adore her on the high seas?

33:18.194 --> 33:23.139
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, what I mean nervous, if there was a service dog nearby, you bet I would be.

33:23.540 --> 33:27.163
[SPEAKER_03]: But Kruella is a villain categorically period.

33:27.203 --> 33:29.306
[SPEAKER_03]: And I know Emma Stone played her wonderfully.

33:29.346 --> 33:30.707
[SPEAKER_03]: My mom and I rewatch the movie.

33:30.687 --> 33:34.672
[SPEAKER_03]: on the cruise because we were so like, in a villain mindset.

33:35.413 --> 33:50.892
[SPEAKER_03]: And while I did really like her in that movie, I'm sorry, intent to murder is still a crime from the rudimentary law knowledge I have gathered from watching too many episodes of suits, law and order SVU, and particularly Matlock.

33:51.293 --> 33:56.519
[SPEAKER_03]: Why and I watched every episode of the reboot of Matlock, I cannot tell you, do I enjoy it?

33:56.940 --> 33:58.922
[SPEAKER_03]: Not particularly

33:58.902 --> 34:17.215
[SPEAKER_03]: every week like clockwork i'm like oh those two girly's are gonna get up to some drama again the story never goes anywhere there's just them scurrying around trying to keep secrets every freaking week and yet with that level of law knowledge i know i'm right i know that the intent is still a crime

34:17.195 --> 34:17.976
[SPEAKER_03]: we can't trust her.

34:18.637 --> 34:19.218
[SPEAKER_03]: She's a villain.

34:19.739 --> 34:24.085
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't think it's bananas for me to round up and say she kills puppies.

34:24.165 --> 34:28.351
[SPEAKER_03]: She wants to kill many puppies and she wants to wear them as a coat, which is pretty sick and twisted.

34:28.371 --> 34:28.992
[SPEAKER_03]: So I stand by it.

34:29.312 --> 34:30.594
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry Tammy, but I stand by it.

34:31.275 --> 34:32.056
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you for your call.

34:33.799 --> 34:36.563
[SPEAKER_03]: She is misunderstood, but like, would you let her walk your dog?

34:37.224 --> 34:45.295
[SPEAKER_03]: There you go.

34:56.530 --> 34:58.672
[SPEAKER_09]: Hey, Charlie, Ken, for Massachusetts here.

34:59.153 --> 35:01.736
[SPEAKER_09]: It's got back about a month ago from a Disney World trip.

35:02.096 --> 35:08.784
[SPEAKER_09]: As soon as our flight home landed, my nephew, who turned five on this trip, on a blue set, okay, when are we going in a Disney cruise?

35:09.384 --> 35:11.807
[SPEAKER_09]: Something we've never talked about or even considered.

35:12.388 --> 35:17.173
[SPEAKER_09]: Right up to that, your Disney Destiny episode came out, and now I've started down the DCL rabbit hole.

35:17.774 --> 35:19.756
[SPEAKER_09]: And I know nothing about this part of Disney.

35:20.357 --> 35:25.963
[SPEAKER_09]: Looking at potentially going into any 27,

35:26.197 --> 35:33.849
[SPEAKER_09]: Maybe even doing Disney World before or after, but I feel so locked, I can play in Disney World without even thinking, but this is so different.

35:34.410 --> 35:37.895
[SPEAKER_09]: Can you give all the grooves in, though, like a DCO 101 class?

35:38.556 --> 35:44.425
[SPEAKER_09]: Difference is in the ship, saw the bigger room, how long to go, how to decide what to do all day, all the basics, and how to plan it all out.

35:44.860 --> 35:47.884
[SPEAKER_09]: I need all the Carly DCO wisdom you have to share.

35:48.405 --> 35:49.486
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks so much.

35:49.506 --> 35:53.532
[SPEAKER_03]: Jen, welcome to your future Disney Cruise Line obsession.

35:53.933 --> 36:00.722
[SPEAKER_03]: It is my honor to welcome you into my virtual lecture hall and to tell you a little too much information about what exactly is going on here.

36:01.203 --> 36:05.268
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, you know, like, and there are many people listening who haven't been on Disney Cruise Line.

36:05.288 --> 36:08.333
[SPEAKER_03]: I know some people have crossed over with me advocating for it.

36:08.353 --> 36:14.361
[SPEAKER_03]: So just let me reiterate that if you love Disney parks, if you love like what this company offers

36:14.341 --> 36:21.951
[SPEAKER_03]: You're going to love Disney Cruise Line because it's the magic of Disney with the ease of actually going on vacation.

36:22.452 --> 36:24.775
[SPEAKER_03]: Now there are a lot of things out there.

36:24.855 --> 36:31.264
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure you feel overwhelmed and I just want to justify you for a minute because a few years ago you would not have been feeling this way.

36:31.565 --> 36:35.590
[SPEAKER_03]: They have essentially doubled their fleet and then they're going to double it again.

36:35.570 --> 36:55.975
[SPEAKER_03]: So you're coming in at a time where it is a little chaotic because they have released ships at a very fast clip and catching up on what the seven or eight if you include the adventure out of Singapore but I don't I don't think we're starting there so we'll just stick to the seven like there's a lot of ships and there's a lot that if they just come up recently and I'm totally with you that it is a bit overwhelming but I I am here to help

36:56.748 --> 37:07.613
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, if you are deciding between a newer and an older ship, or which is the best fit for you, or anything like that, do not worry, because I got you, past currently has you covered.

37:08.114 --> 37:12.283
[SPEAKER_03]: We actually did an entire episode about this, which I'll admit on main.

37:12.684 --> 37:15.330
[SPEAKER_03]: I forgot about until I was like, wait, I feel like I've...

37:15.310 --> 37:20.861
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like I've done this, and then I wrote a little outline, I was like, wait, I've definitely done this, and then I remember the episode.

37:21.202 --> 37:27.876
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, the title of it is misleading, I should update it, but it's called your Disney Cruise Line Questions Answered.

37:28.276 --> 37:36.373
[SPEAKER_03]: That podcast episode will be linked in the show notes, just click on that, and it basically answers all of your questions with full research.

37:36.353 --> 37:59.593
[SPEAKER_03]: So if you are looking for a jumping off point with like my hot takes and thoughts and strongly held opinions about how to choose a cruise ship if you want a big ship or a small ship how long to cruise for where to cruise or like even which Disney island destination to choose that podcast has all of that consider like the Wikipedia entry for how I feel about the fleet as a whole.

37:59.573 --> 38:19.033
[SPEAKER_03]: And I know it sounds like a lot right now, but I promise give that episode a listen and you will feel like you have a better grip on it by the end it is again, it is a lot it is not you and I want to make sure that you are just feeling calm and cool and collected as you embark on like honestly like peak Disney vacationing.

38:19.013 --> 38:27.167
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, that answers, I think, about half of your questions, but there is another episode I'm going to link to in the show notes that I recommend you check out.

38:27.588 --> 38:34.660
[SPEAKER_03]: That is my favorite Disney Grizzling tips and tricks, and that's kind of like a bonus once you parse out what you might like to do on DCL.

38:34.640 --> 38:39.146
[SPEAKER_03]: But there are some trickier questions that you alluded to, like, do I connect this to a Disney girl vacation?

38:39.186 --> 38:39.746
[SPEAKER_03]: What should I do?

38:39.787 --> 38:42.830
[SPEAKER_03]: And I would say it comes down to your gut.

38:43.011 --> 38:57.609
[SPEAKER_03]: If you are traveling with people who you think like dragging them to two different destinations, you know, like going to the port and going to the parks, if you think that is too much for your friends, your family, like anyone you're traveling with, then you can just go on the cruise and it's totally fine.

38:58.310 --> 38:59.972
[SPEAKER_03]: The newest ship, which we have.

38:59.952 --> 39:04.078
[SPEAKER_03]: reported on the Disney Destiny, doesn't say a lot of anywhere near Orlando.

39:04.218 --> 39:08.063
[SPEAKER_03]: My trick is that whenever I go to pork knaveral, I'm like, I'm flying in Orlando anyway.

39:08.083 --> 39:15.132
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't go to a theme park and I get trapped every time it ends up being like an eight day trip and I go to the parks and I'm always exhausted by the end.

39:15.152 --> 39:16.935
[SPEAKER_03]: But because if I'm near the parks, I have to go.

39:17.355 --> 39:21.161
[SPEAKER_03]: But I this time, this is my first time, I'm so sorry.

39:21.401 --> 39:29.672
[SPEAKER_03]: This was my first time sailing out of pork everglades,

39:29.652 --> 39:37.283
[SPEAKER_03]: I drove to Disney World, you can also take the bright line quite easily, but I flew in when on the cruise and flew home and I actually really liked it.

39:37.684 --> 39:41.369
[SPEAKER_03]: Usually I'm like I'm so close to Disney World, I flew across the country, I got to go.

39:41.930 --> 39:44.994
[SPEAKER_03]: But I kind of liked being restricted to just the cruise.

39:45.094 --> 39:49.240
[SPEAKER_03]: I did the cruise, I had a blast, I had a home, I felt fulfilled, it was really nice.

39:49.260 --> 39:51.964
[SPEAKER_03]: So it really is personal preference.

39:51.944 --> 40:04.527
[SPEAKER_03]: Having done it with Pearl, it is a lot to be like if there are children to like have all the kids stuff and like deal with all of that when there are youths aboard But it is absolutely personal preference and both of them both options are great.

40:04.728 --> 40:07.633
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, that was a great, but I mean, I'm I'm going to a theme park from your theme park.

40:07.813 --> 40:08.755
[SPEAKER_03]: I cannot go myself

40:09.072 --> 40:24.162
[SPEAKER_03]: The last thing I need to discuss is how to pick a room where on the ship to sleep and the truthful answer is I have no idea I have absolutely no idea because that is what I use any I mouse fan travel for that is what

40:24.142 --> 40:28.653
[SPEAKER_03]: They, I mean, they're worth their weight in gold, except the gold is free when you work with them.

40:29.215 --> 40:41.425
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that we talk about them on other courses of this podcast, but I just want to emphasize that travel agents, all travel agents, have such expertise specifically about cruises that, like, you can't find on the internet on your own.

40:41.405 --> 40:48.151
[SPEAKER_03]: They dedicate so much time and research to seeing the different room types, knowing which rooms are different from others on the ship.

40:48.211 --> 40:56.219
[SPEAKER_03]: They know these ships inside and out, and they can help you navigate all room types, all room locations, and really break down the costs for you.

40:56.839 --> 41:02.285
[SPEAKER_03]: I genuinely, like, I don't have that knowledge base, and they really, they really do.

41:02.745 --> 41:11.293
[SPEAKER_03]: And one other thing is that when I just recently saw Becky, oh my god, I've only seen Becky on water, not land.

41:11.527 --> 41:15.827
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, when I record with her, I know she's in her office, but I'm always a begging person on land.

41:16.208 --> 41:17.655
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, on the ship.

41:17.990 --> 41:19.332
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow, aerial vibes.

41:19.593 --> 41:23.680
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, Becky told me that there are always major travel discounts in January.

41:23.740 --> 41:28.428
[SPEAKER_03]: So if you're listening to this when it comes out, I want to make sure you reach out sooner than later to a travel agent.

41:28.508 --> 41:34.278
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, if you want to reach out to any MSN travel, I swear by them, they've booked cruises for me and they knock it out of the park.

41:34.298 --> 41:38.825
[SPEAKER_03]: But if you want to save money and kind of book something soon, definitely reach out.

41:38.885 --> 41:44.014
[SPEAKER_03]: But truly, if we're just starting to think about Disney Cruise Line, listen to those podcast episodes,

41:43.994 --> 41:48.919
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, um, like taken in, I would say check out like YouTube tours of the ships.

41:48.939 --> 41:55.485
[SPEAKER_03]: There are a lot of those which can be really helpful, but really, just get excited to be a Disney Cruise Line person because it's so much fun.

41:56.145 --> 42:05.174
[SPEAKER_03]: I like, I looked back on this year and was like, I report on cruises, like it didn't even click in my brain that I report on cruises, because to me, most of the time, I'm like, oh, it's just Disney.

42:05.634 --> 42:07.896
[SPEAKER_03]: I did go on real creepy in this year and that was pretty dope, it was fun.

42:08.217 --> 42:11.560
[SPEAKER_03]: But like to me, I'm like, oh, I'm just adding another Disney park that happens to be floating.

42:11.640 --> 42:13.782
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so much fun.

42:13.762 --> 42:22.443
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm so grateful, I mean, I'm truly grateful that you're five-year-old nephew kind of planted this seed that's going to blossom into a beautiful, fruitful tree.

42:23.064 --> 42:28.617
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you for calling, and if you have any specific questions along the way, don't hesitate to call, I would be happy to answer them in full.

42:29.299 --> 42:30.201
[SPEAKER_03]: Happy sailing!

42:31.598 --> 42:35.383
[SPEAKER_00]: Make our way, this is Ashley Seen from Florida, I'm a suit fan.

42:36.064 --> 42:46.878
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm actually calling in because I just listened to the Disney Destiny episode, and something that I don't think you covered with the 18 and over area on that cruise line.

42:47.780 --> 42:50.864
[SPEAKER_00]: Chipped and that family of cruise audiences.

42:50.884 --> 42:57.032
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to point out that there's a part of that that is very annoying to me as someone who travels without kids.

42:57.383 --> 43:04.419
[SPEAKER_00]: And that, that is right next to the aqua mouse exit, and you get the announcement over and over again.

43:04.800 --> 43:11.877
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think the biggest critique of that boat is that the adult only area is not big enough, and it's also not too full enough.

43:12.358 --> 43:13.781
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks, hope you have a great day.

43:14.001 --> 43:14.683
[SPEAKER_00]: Bye.

43:14.663 --> 43:25.522
[SPEAKER_03]: I actually think you so much for your call and I just need to preemptively apologize for the state of my voice as I mentioned and recording this podcast over multiple days because my voice is not completely come back.

43:25.902 --> 43:32.554
[SPEAKER_03]: And this is the worst I think it sounds in the entire episode and I just started recording I went to Disneyland all day with Pearl and.

43:32.534 --> 43:36.223
[SPEAKER_03]: She's just was not understanding the concept of a line today.

43:36.263 --> 43:46.206
[SPEAKER_03]: So all day I was like, Pearl, come here Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl Pearl the whole day and I'm just not realizing how much I did that because almost no sound is coming out.

43:46.372 --> 43:52.401
[SPEAKER_03]: That said, I need sound to come out because I need to back you up here because yeah, you are absolutely right.

43:52.461 --> 44:00.433
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a complaint that I heard firsthand on the very first sailing of the Disney wish from friends who cruise a lot as solo adults.

44:00.733 --> 44:01.975
[SPEAKER_03]: They were in this area.

44:02.175 --> 44:04.819
[SPEAKER_03]: I went to go say hi to them and they were like, this is crazy.

44:04.799 --> 44:06.602
[SPEAKER_03]: So, you were absolutely right.

44:06.702 --> 44:07.323
[SPEAKER_03]: I have mentioned it.

44:07.403 --> 44:18.121
[SPEAKER_03]: I think in the Disney Wish recap episode, maybe in the episode that is in the show notes about all the cruises, but thank you for bringing this up because it also reminds me of something else we have to talk about, which put a pin in and we will come back to later.

44:18.702 --> 44:21.306
[SPEAKER_03]: But yes, the 18-over adult,

44:21.286 --> 44:35.521
[SPEAKER_03]: like outdoor pool deck areas on the the newer class of Disney ships is different and not entirely in a positive way according to people who really know this product as someone who spends time in the adult areas.

44:36.082 --> 44:39.210
[SPEAKER_03]: What you said is absolutely true you hear the Aquamanos and that's

44:39.190 --> 44:41.112
[SPEAKER_03]: not really the vibe.

44:41.152 --> 44:45.678
[SPEAKER_03]: My complaint about this area is that it is very hard to find.

44:45.738 --> 44:52.747
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a bigger ship than what we're used to and it is very tricky to me to actually find the entrance to this space.

44:53.247 --> 44:58.434
[SPEAKER_03]: It's kind of like a horseshoe if you can imagine that but you can only enter from one side.

44:58.474 --> 45:01.738
[SPEAKER_03]: You can't exit from the other side if that has changed.

45:01.718 --> 45:05.322
[SPEAKER_03]: let me know, but I fully walked all the way through the sports court.

45:05.362 --> 45:08.266
[SPEAKER_03]: My first and I think second time I tried to get here on two different ships.

45:08.606 --> 45:15.254
[SPEAKER_03]: I walked through the sports court and went to a door and it was like, Kaz members only dude and I was like, how do I get to Cove Cafe?

45:15.294 --> 45:22.443
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I since then have learned that like, early you can get an espresso at the bars near like the middle of the ship.

45:22.463 --> 45:23.744
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, there are places to get coffee.

45:24.065 --> 45:25.266
[SPEAKER_03]: There's also a great coffee shop.

45:25.286 --> 45:30.072
[SPEAKER_03]: That's right by Marceline's market, but my brain for so long has been like Cove Cafe coded.

45:30.052 --> 45:33.540
[SPEAKER_03]: And so I would just be like, I need his present and like, couldn't get there.

45:33.580 --> 45:35.344
[SPEAKER_03]: That has been my gripe about the adult spaces.

45:35.745 --> 45:47.571
[SPEAKER_03]: I've also heard that it's very crammed, that like, beautiful infinity pool, which I have spent time in when people are on cast away, just being like, oh, I'm going to soak it up on no ones here, I've heard it does get people soupy.

45:47.551 --> 45:49.716
[SPEAKER_03]: There are things that people have said about this area.

45:50.077 --> 45:55.590
[SPEAKER_03]: That said, for me, with Disney Cruise Line, it always comes back to there are pros and there are cons to each ship.

45:55.971 --> 45:58.136
[SPEAKER_03]: Because this is a completely different ship.

45:58.537 --> 46:03.990
[SPEAKER_03]: And without this area, which some people don't like as much as the area on other older ships,

46:03.970 --> 46:10.182
[SPEAKER_03]: we wouldn't have things like a frozen themed restaurant, we wouldn't have sees the adventure, we wouldn't have some really, really cool stuff.

46:10.202 --> 46:11.504
[SPEAKER_03]: So I do think it is a trade-off.

46:11.905 --> 46:18.117
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I don't spend a lot of time in adult-only areas, even if I am on a Disney cruise, this is before I had a kid.

46:18.538 --> 46:20.882
[SPEAKER_03]: Even if I'm on a Disney cruise with my family,

46:20.862 --> 46:22.725
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not chill and I'm working.

46:22.766 --> 46:27.595
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm always walking around taking videos, taking content like I have work brain.

46:28.015 --> 46:32.163
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what it's like to go on a Disney vacation and truly let go.

46:32.183 --> 46:33.325
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what it's like.

46:33.646 --> 46:34.828
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I love to work.

46:34.988 --> 46:41.000
[SPEAKER_03]: I love what I do and so to me it's like a heightened version of a trip which is why I love it because I don't like to relax.

46:41.020 --> 46:42.803
[SPEAKER_03]: But I completely understand what you're saying.

46:42.783 --> 46:51.535
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, I've always thought it was weird that the adult-only areas on the older ships have people go in through them all ding-dong day, like there's just people caught and through.

46:51.695 --> 46:55.080
[SPEAKER_03]: I always thought that was weird, but I genuinely don't think that seems to bother other people.

46:55.140 --> 46:58.505
[SPEAKER_03]: It really doesn't seem to, so I hear what you're saying.

46:58.545 --> 47:03.171
[SPEAKER_03]: And I do agree with you, and I'm sorry that you've had to experience this, because that's not.

47:03.151 --> 47:04.693
[SPEAKER_03]: That's not very relaxing.

47:05.014 --> 47:05.535
[SPEAKER_03]: I get it.

47:06.076 --> 47:13.768
[SPEAKER_03]: But the thing that I need to tell you about, which oh my lord, you guys, I am so ashamed that I have not done this.

47:13.788 --> 47:15.270
[SPEAKER_03]: It was on my to-do list.

47:15.290 --> 47:20.738
[SPEAKER_03]: I transferred from a paper to-do list to a digital to-do list and I was really in crunch time in December and it was a huge mistake.

47:21.339 --> 47:31.335
[SPEAKER_03]: But I needed to update or Disney Destiny episode because I at no point in that episode mentioned explicitly

47:31.315 --> 47:41.943
[SPEAKER_03]: that Davils, where travel makers, one of the experiences I was obsessed with on the ship, I never explicitly mentioned that Davils is 18 up a hundred percent of the time.

47:42.364 --> 47:47.417
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I fact-checked this when I got off the ship, I got an email back in November.

47:47.397 --> 47:51.262
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm looking at this email thread with my PR person, and I'm horrified.

47:51.683 --> 47:54.486
[SPEAKER_03]: This is what we finished our conversation on December 1st.

47:54.627 --> 47:56.289
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, it's Christmas.

47:56.890 --> 47:57.430
[SPEAKER_03]: It's Christmas.

47:57.571 --> 48:01.175
[SPEAKER_03]: I am so sorry you guys that I did not mention this earlier.

48:01.195 --> 48:11.329
[SPEAKER_03]: I will be updating this episode ASAP, but I just want to reiterate that on the Disney destiny, Devils is the only lounge that is adults only for the entire day.

48:11.309 --> 48:19.389
[SPEAKER_03]: So people under oh sorry that's my sleepy time alarm of my watch if you heard that So people under 18 can't do travel makers.

48:19.449 --> 48:20.392
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel horrible.

48:21.033 --> 48:27.850
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry I didn't mention it sooner But I got I didn't really think it through because even places like like the haunted mansion bar or

48:27.830 --> 48:47.357
[SPEAKER_03]: The Star Wars inspired bar on the Disney wish those families can enter until 9 p.m. and then they transition into adult only This one is adult only so Baby the silver lining is that like yeah, you got to hear the Aquaman house, but again pros and cons pros and cons you get to do travel makers and travel makers is fantastic Thank you for sharing your input.

48:47.377 --> 48:53.246
[SPEAKER_03]: I appreciate this you are 100% correct, and I hope to talk to you about Disney cruise line again soon.

48:53.886 --> 48:54.327
[UNKNOWN]: Okay, bye

48:55.842 --> 48:56.463
[SPEAKER_07]: Hi, Charlie.

48:56.483 --> 48:59.289
[SPEAKER_07]: My name is Iwana from Phoenix and I have a mini mystery for you.

48:59.309 --> 49:08.107
[SPEAKER_07]: I was in Disney World last month and while I was waiting in line for Tiana's biosensure, I noticed these little bird house looking things on the top of these wooden poles.

49:08.708 --> 49:13.598
[SPEAKER_07]: They were all different colors and designs but didn't seem to have a purpose that I could figure out.

49:13.814 --> 49:15.316
[SPEAKER_07]: Do you know what these are or what they're for?

49:15.376 --> 49:16.818
[SPEAKER_07]: Love the podcast.

49:16.838 --> 49:18.019
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks.

49:18.039 --> 49:18.259
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi!

49:18.400 --> 49:23.326
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, thank you so much for calling about this because yeah, nobody's talking about the birdhouses and we need to be talking about these little birdhouses more.

49:23.947 --> 49:33.378
[SPEAKER_03]: It is my understanding that they are essentially the updated attractions homage to the birdhouses that used to be in the queue when the ride was splashed mountain.

49:33.739 --> 49:40.547
[SPEAKER_03]: They just kind of re-did them but still honor them by having birdhouses there and that's why you're missing them in the queue.

49:40.527 --> 49:43.750
[SPEAKER_03]: um, nothing, nothing to shocking, nothing to cookie.

49:43.790 --> 49:46.453
[SPEAKER_03]: They just changed the style to fit the narrative of this ride.

49:47.214 --> 49:48.655
[SPEAKER_03]: And yeah, they're cute.

49:48.935 --> 49:49.536
[SPEAKER_03]: They're really cute.

49:49.776 --> 49:51.738
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I've, I've never seen a bird over there.

49:51.758 --> 49:53.440
[SPEAKER_03]: I wonder if you did, but we did.

49:53.700 --> 49:58.225
[SPEAKER_03]: Just, just a little thing to kind of honor the ride that was there before and to carry that tradition through.

49:58.645 --> 49:59.306
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you for going.

49:59.566 --> 50:01.108
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a fun one to answer.

50:01.128 --> 50:03.210
[SPEAKER_08]: Hi, Carly.

50:03.790 --> 50:06.433
[SPEAKER_08]: This is Ellen, formerly a Houston, now a Virginia.

50:06.717 --> 50:13.264
[SPEAKER_08]: My husband and I recently got back from a Japan trip and your Tokyo episodes were so helpful for our planning and you just had the best time.

50:13.985 --> 50:21.874
[SPEAKER_08]: While I am part of my ranking of Hollywood Studios, I realize it's more because there's a lot of stuff I like in it and less that I think it's a cohesive park.

50:22.715 --> 50:33.467
[SPEAKER_08]: To both of those points, I would like to know what is your dream, a recame of Tower of Terror in Orlando.

50:33.751 --> 50:36.783
[SPEAKER_08]: And Tokyo manages to make that work with the Harrison High Tower theme.

50:37.084 --> 50:44.031
[SPEAKER_08]: Also, my husband would love to know if you have any recommendations for Tokyo Disney merch you can buy from the States because it kind of struck out in person.

50:44.230 --> 50:55.710
[SPEAKER_03]: Can't wait to hear your thoughts.

50:57.112 --> 51:06.829
[SPEAKER_03]: Bye!

51:06.809 --> 51:13.999
[SPEAKER_03]: But I got to say when posed with a question of like, also I'm answering this, like, I, this is not chatGBT.

51:14.139 --> 51:21.208
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, this is, um, Carly W, SL, I, it's late at night.

51:21.228 --> 51:26.515
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, I did that did not land, but I just want to make sure I'm like, I don't want to skip anything, I don't want to skip anything.

51:26.656 --> 51:30.741
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes I have to go like, like, like, thing you mentioned by thinking you mentioned line by line.

51:30.721 --> 51:32.184
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, okay.

51:32.204 --> 51:33.647
[SPEAKER_03]: So the thing is like Hollywood Studios.

51:34.108 --> 51:34.528
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a fart.

51:34.609 --> 51:36.933
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't love it, but there's kind of nothing else.

51:36.953 --> 51:40.841
[SPEAKER_03]: I would want Tower of Terror in Orlando to be Um, I granted.

51:40.881 --> 51:52.223
[SPEAKER_03]: I am not a storyteller in the likes of someone at Walt Disney Imagineering, but it just I don't I don't know like I feel like they've changed so much lately.

51:52.203 --> 51:58.076
[SPEAKER_03]: that I think changing twilight zone would just, I think it would be a bridge too far for a lot of us.

51:58.658 --> 51:59.299
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it would be too far.

51:59.379 --> 52:11.106
[SPEAKER_03]: If they have a great idea, like let them cook, I'm curious to see what it is, but I don't know, I really feel pretty like arms tied by my back and this one, like I really don't know, I don't have anything.

52:11.086 --> 52:22.900
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't have anything because also your story has to like fit with going up and down and then going through And I'm kind of like I don't want some I don't want to like have some more the lead couldn't seat for like Oh, we're going through a time.

52:22.920 --> 52:24.262
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, look like I don't want that.

52:24.863 --> 52:28.908
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess I guess tower of terror is kind of like the best version.

52:28.928 --> 52:40.502
[SPEAKER_03]: I can think of it right now Yeah, yeah, I guess I guess I want that unless they I'm sure they dream up something cool But yeah, I stand behind it for now even though the park is not my favorite

52:40.651 --> 52:42.313
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, Tokyo Disney merch.

52:42.974 --> 52:45.138
[SPEAKER_03]: This is something I can give you a definitive answer on.

52:46.319 --> 53:00.841
[SPEAKER_03]: I have heard, so I've been saying this is happening to me maybe for like a couple of years now that I've gone to the parks and then we I explain it is that I arrive at a time that is between merch drops when merch literally comes out in a certain day or like a certain like a week.

53:00.901 --> 53:02.423
[SPEAKER_03]: There's there's an assigned schedule.

53:02.403 --> 53:16.616
[SPEAKER_03]: And I have gotten there between where like, oh, they dropped a new merch three weeks ago and new merch is near for a week and a half and there's not really anything I want and there is this real strong messaging coming back from overseas that like, oh, the merchant Japan is amazing.

53:16.636 --> 53:17.678
[SPEAKER_03]: You're going to buy everything.

53:17.658 --> 53:30.753
[SPEAKER_03]: I think what's happening here, and this is anecdotal, but I think what's happening here is that one resell has become increasingly more popular in the last five years, two tourism to Japan has become increasingly popular in the last five years.

53:31.414 --> 53:33.837
[SPEAKER_03]: And, uh, oh no, that's that's it, one and two.

53:34.037 --> 53:41.826
[SPEAKER_03]: And so I think that stuff is getting scooped up faster by resell people and also more often because more people are traveling there.

53:41.806 --> 53:53.082
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that is why you can possibly show up to the Tokyo Parks and be like, everything here is cool, but I'm not really buying anything that I thought would knock my socks off, because those items might already be gone.

53:54.043 --> 53:59.952
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, there is a website that I have used in the past to buy merchandise, not just in Tokyo, but all over overseas.

54:00.392 --> 54:02.655
[SPEAKER_03]: It's called US shopping, SOS.

54:02.675 --> 54:04.358
[SPEAKER_03]: Let me make sure I didn't give you too many essays in there.

54:04.798 --> 54:08.083
[SPEAKER_03]: US shopping, SOS.com, they're great.

54:08.063 --> 54:10.667
[SPEAKER_03]: I've, I've used them before so I vouch for them.

54:10.687 --> 54:12.831
[SPEAKER_03]: I will, isn't I do have a bone to pick?

54:12.911 --> 54:25.532
[SPEAKER_03]: That in answering your question, as the journalist that I am, I am now like eight tabs deep on this website, just looking at things I absolutely do not need and looking at things I've passed up before, like, oh my god.

54:25.512 --> 54:28.716
[SPEAKER_03]: They have duffy in a tiger costume.

54:29.297 --> 54:33.422
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not ticker, but tiger from the Chinese zodiac from Shanghai Disneyland.

54:33.502 --> 54:37.187
[SPEAKER_03]: It is amazing, but I'm not the prices are high.

54:37.507 --> 54:42.754
[SPEAKER_03]: The prices are, I would say, at least twice what you would pay in the park, at least.

54:43.475 --> 54:45.377
[SPEAKER_03]: Like right now, I am looking at...

54:49.593 --> 54:51.096
[SPEAKER_03]: What have you done to me?

54:51.136 --> 55:05.408
[SPEAKER_03]: I was going to say I'm looking at an eighty three dollar Duffy in front collectible container of mini figures and like yeah I would love my kid to play with Lena Bell because she knows the Lena Bell is she sleeps with three Lena Bells, okay?

55:05.388 --> 55:09.894
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm raising her right, but I can't be spending 83 dollars on a plastic container of toys.

55:10.334 --> 55:20.548
[SPEAKER_03]: However, however, I do have adult money, and I can be spending $40 on a Duffy in Friends Passport Holder.

55:20.828 --> 55:25.194
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, I swear by my jelly belly, jelly bean passport holder, I love it.

55:25.534 --> 55:26.596
[SPEAKER_03]: It is my favorite thing.

55:26.676 --> 55:30.581
[SPEAKER_03]: I love putting my passport in it, but it is basically shredding from the inside.

55:30.621 --> 55:31.422
[SPEAKER_03]: It is falling apart.

55:31.482 --> 55:33.825
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh wait, I already have a gelatinous one.

55:33.805 --> 55:34.746
[SPEAKER_03]: What am I talking about?

55:34.766 --> 55:35.107
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry now.

55:35.127 --> 55:35.768
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just talking to myself.

55:36.148 --> 55:37.590
[SPEAKER_03]: I have a gelatinous passport holder.

55:37.630 --> 55:43.359
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't mean this Pro was using that, but then I bought her a stony clover lane one, which I love and so yeah, I'm fine.

55:43.719 --> 55:46.884
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I have resisted yet again We got prices are pretty high.

55:46.944 --> 55:56.978
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean to give you an idea a basic definitely keychain 36 bucks Duffy pajamas 98 dollars like they're they're pretty high.

55:57.018 --> 56:01.264
[SPEAKER_03]: They're pretty up there and I do feel like they are more expensive than

56:01.244 --> 56:03.288
[SPEAKER_03]: They used to be in the past, so just keep that in mind.

56:03.548 --> 56:19.759
[SPEAKER_03]: But if you are in the search of like one or two special items from the parks that you didn't really find while you were there, check out this website and I don't think you need to have like, ooh, gotten it in Tokyo while you were there, like I think that you will be happy with what you got and it may cost a little more, but then you'll get exactly what you want.

56:19.739 --> 56:20.762
[SPEAKER_03]: And that is nice.

56:20.902 --> 56:22.346
[SPEAKER_03]: It's nice to have exactly what you want.

56:22.848 --> 56:35.183
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope this was helpful my voice is given up So I'm gonna end this one, but Yeah, I struck out in person as well like you mentioned and it's a bummer and I've been hearing it more and more lately So I do think those are the reasons why it's happening, but

56:35.163 --> 56:54.640
[SPEAKER_03]: them are just so great it's just I used to find treasures when I went and be like oh my god stuff I'd never seen before anywhere and now I think just the confluence of the internet and social media and and everything being sold everywhere like I was thinking about this the other day that like I went to a vintage market it was like a pop-up vintage market it was horrible

56:54.620 --> 56:59.610
[SPEAKER_03]: okay, it was supposed to be like the best vintage sellers in LA.

57:00.251 --> 57:07.566
[SPEAKER_03]: It was all extremely overpriced, designer, luxury vintage at prices that were eye watering.

57:07.765 --> 57:08.707
[SPEAKER_03]: I watering.

57:08.927 --> 57:09.348
[SPEAKER_03]: I left.

57:09.468 --> 57:10.490
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't buy a single thing.

57:10.590 --> 57:13.916
[SPEAKER_03]: I was tempted by one thing that I then realized, oh, this is not even vintage.

57:14.217 --> 57:18.264
[SPEAKER_03]: It was absolutely made five years ago in a factory, like it bonkers.

57:18.705 --> 57:25.878
[SPEAKER_03]: But the reason I'm saying this is because I was just, I haven't really felt like I've had a good thrift store experience in a really long time.

57:26.359 --> 57:27.681
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think it's because

57:27.661 --> 57:32.129
[SPEAKER_03]: When I was younger, I used to thrift and like Chicago, I used to thrift at school in Illinois.

57:32.169 --> 57:37.859
[SPEAKER_03]: And the audience, like the customer base, was anybody who could physically walk in the door.

57:37.979 --> 57:38.440
[SPEAKER_03]: That was it.

57:39.101 --> 57:39.582
[SPEAKER_03]: That was it.

57:39.742 --> 57:46.434
[SPEAKER_03]: And now, every single store, their customer base is every single person in the entire freaking world.

57:46.774 --> 57:51.663
[SPEAKER_03]: So prices are higher because we were in a college town when I bought a lot of my early vintage stuff.

57:52.123 --> 57:52.504
[SPEAKER_03]: And like,

57:53.412 --> 57:58.499
[SPEAKER_03]: You can't charge with like New York prices and it sounds like that now everything's been equalized.

57:58.539 --> 58:01.183
[SPEAKER_03]: Like I used to work at a vintage store in New York called Shoreen.

58:01.504 --> 58:02.986
[SPEAKER_03]: It was amazing.

58:03.106 --> 58:10.116
[SPEAKER_03]: It was a job I took because I started freelancing and I realized I spent every single day and I social sitting at home and I was losing my mind.

58:10.417 --> 58:11.378
[SPEAKER_03]: And so I took a job.

58:11.418 --> 58:13.641
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it was like nine hours, nine or 10 hours a week.

58:13.661 --> 58:14.483
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it was a couple nights.

58:14.543 --> 58:15.985
[SPEAKER_03]: It was just to like get out of the house.

58:16.365 --> 58:18.709
[SPEAKER_03]: I ended up making a few of my closest friends there.

58:18.809 --> 58:20.972
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi Julia, who listen the podcast every week.

58:20.952 --> 58:35.726
[SPEAKER_03]: I love you, um, and like made friends for life through this random job, but I really miss it more and more as time goes on because they sold quirky fun vintage things a lot of the vintage dresses I wear are from Sheryl Um, they had a store in LA which was amazing.

58:35.766 --> 58:36.427
[SPEAKER_03]: It was a warehouse.

58:36.447 --> 58:37.289
[SPEAKER_03]: It was just so great.

58:37.690 --> 58:38.472
[SPEAKER_03]: But

58:38.452 --> 58:42.698
[SPEAKER_03]: Shereen, like a lot, I've noticed a lot of patterns like this happening in different industries.

58:43.139 --> 58:48.167
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, he used to go and used to be a nice experience and there wasn't really online sales.

58:48.808 --> 58:52.894
[SPEAKER_03]: And everything, you know, stock was limited sales were limited to whoever walked in the door.

58:53.455 --> 58:58.142
[SPEAKER_03]: And now that anybody can buy anything, anywhere, the prices have skyrocketed for so many vintage things.

58:58.542 --> 59:01.607
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, doing astronomical level, the really shouldn't be at.

59:01.587 --> 59:08.255
[SPEAKER_03]: And I feel that something similar is happening to the theme park international version dice playing fields.

59:08.316 --> 59:14.163
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like a lot of people may be not even like resellers for a living, but people will go to Tokyo.

59:14.283 --> 59:17.968
[SPEAKER_03]: I assume they buy a bunch of stuff and then they come home and toss a few things on eBay.

59:18.368 --> 59:23.515
[SPEAKER_03]: And that just means there's not a lot of stock left for when people just casually go on a trip.

59:23.535 --> 59:26.659
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that's something that over the past few years the way the internet has changed.

59:26.739 --> 59:29.282
[SPEAKER_03]: It has shaped things like this and a way to anticipate.

59:29.262 --> 59:36.959
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, when you go to Tokyo, you're going to buy a bunch of stuff, but it is something I haven't really talked about that I really feel like is informing what you experience on your trip.

59:37.120 --> 59:38.403
[SPEAKER_03]: That's that I hope you had a great time.

59:38.824 --> 59:39.706
[SPEAKER_03]: Tokyo is amazing.

59:39.766 --> 59:40.528
[SPEAKER_03]: I miss it already.

59:40.548 --> 59:44.076
[SPEAKER_03]: I was there this year, but this year was a whirlwind, so it feels like it never happened.

59:44.116 --> 59:45.178
[SPEAKER_03]: We also went for

59:45.614 --> 59:50.879
[SPEAKER_03]: Like three days, who's a Tokyo for three days when you have a young child, what were we thinking?

59:50.919 --> 59:52.521
[SPEAKER_03]: That was not a good idea.

59:52.561 --> 59:54.903
[SPEAKER_03]: I pushed for it, but it was not a good idea.

59:55.544 --> 01:00:00.208
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, we were so tired and then we came home and were like, oh, now we're back to full-time jobs in parenting, cool, cool.

01:00:00.348 --> 01:00:01.589
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, I'm out of the tangent.

01:00:01.609 --> 01:00:02.170
[SPEAKER_03]: I have no more voice.

01:00:02.751 --> 01:00:03.671
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I hope you had a blast.

01:00:03.992 --> 01:00:06.895
[SPEAKER_03]: Let me know if you find anything and you must shopping as well as I really like it.

01:00:07.435 --> 01:00:08.876
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, okay, I'm going to go shopping.

01:00:09.137 --> 01:00:10.598
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to go shopping at, you convinced me.

01:00:10.898 --> 01:00:11.579
[SPEAKER_03]: I convinced myself.

01:00:12.180 --> 01:00:12.600
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, bye.

01:00:13.036 --> 01:00:19.536

01:00:47.375 --> 01:00:50.038
[SPEAKER_03]: Truly did not expect it to take two weeks from my voice to come back.

01:00:50.058 --> 01:00:50.798
[SPEAKER_03]: Do I talk that much?

01:00:51.359 --> 01:00:55.243
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess I talk that much, but it would be yikes if it wasn't my job, right?

01:00:55.223 --> 01:00:56.426

[SPEAKER_03]: Even if it's like, I want to eat a chef Mickey's and my friends want to eat it.

01:01:12.487 --> 01:01:13.348
[SPEAKER_03]: Crystal Palace!

01:01:13.568 --> 01:01:19.216
[SPEAKER_03]: Let me settle it for you, and also I'm not going to tell you to make these unless you don't have a park ticket, and then it's like, okay, you do get a little more of a theme park experience.

01:01:19.236 --> 01:01:28.189
[SPEAKER_03]: Be do a character practice outside the park, but depending on what day it is, I would maybe kind of steer you somewhere else, possibly even like in O'HANA, because then you can get more on it that resort.

01:01:28.329 --> 01:01:36.380
[SPEAKER_03]: I think then just make it the contemporary, you can always take them on rail over, and then also you can go to four seasons, and then they, it's a much better breakfast experience, but the character costumes are man is good, because they all look like they're about to go golfing.

01:01:36.580 --> 01:01:37.241
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, see?
